Create a truth table for a logical expression of the form $(a \operatorname{op1} b) \operatorname{op2}(c \operatorname{op3} d)$ where $a, \;b,\;c,\;d$ can be the Boolean variables $p,\;q,\;\neg p,\;\neg q$ and each of $\operatorname{op1},\;\operatorname{op2},\;\operatorname{op3}$ one of $\lor,\;\land,\;\to$.

For example: $(p \lor \neg q) \land(q \to \neg p)$.

This is a set of questions for students to practice identifying parabolas, hyperbolas and exponentials.

There are also a few questions asking students to draw graphs, and to evaluate the curves at specific points.

10 questions are selected from a larger pool. 

In the first question students are asked to identify the type of a graph.

In the second question students are asked to identify the type of an equation.

Then next 6 questions are basic questions about evaluating points on a curve or matching curves and equations.

The last 2 questions are applications - e.g. compound interest, displayed as an equation, a table or a graph.

Determine the largest possible domain of a rational function.

The human resources department of a large finance company is attempting to determine if an employee’s performance is influenced by their undergraduate degree subject. Personnel ratings are used to judge performance and the task is to use expected frequencies and the chi-squared statistic to test the null hypothesis that there is no association.

Given $m \in \mathbb{N}$, find all $n \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $\phi(n)=m$ and enter the largest and second largest if they exist.

Given a large number of gambles, find the expected profit.

This is the question for week 3 of the MA100 course at the LSE. It looks at material from chapters 5 and 6. The following describes how two polynomials were defined in the question. This may be helpful for anyone who needs to edit this question.

In part a we have a polynomial. We wanted it to have two stationary points. To create the polynomial we first created the two stationary points as variables, called StationaryPoint1 and StationaryPoint2 which we will simply write as s1 ans s2 here. s2 was defined to be larger than s1. This means that the derivative of our polynomial must be of the form a(x-s1)(x-s2) for some constant a. The constant "a" is a variable called PolynomialScalarMult, and it is defined to be a multiple of 6 so that when we integrate the derivative a(x-s1)(x-s2) we only have integer coefficients. Its possible values include positive and negative values, so that the first stationary point is not always a max (and the second always a min). Finally, we have a variable called ConstantTerm which is the constant term that we take when we integrate the derivative derivative a(x-s1)(x-s2). Hence, we can now create a randomised polynomial with integers coefficients, for which the stationary points are s1 and s2; namely (the integral of a(x-s1)(x-s2)) plus ConstantTerm.

In part e we created a more complicated polynomial. It is defined as -2x^3 + 3(s1 + s2)x^2 -(6*s1*s2) x + YIntercept on the domain [0,35]. One can easily calculate that the stationary points of this polynomials are s1 and s2. Furthermore, they are chosen so that both are in the domain and so that s1 is smaller than s2. This means that s1 is a min and s2 is a max. Hence, the maximum point of the function will occur either at 0 or s2 (The function is descreasing after s2). Furthermore, one can see that when we evaluate the function at s2 we get (s2)^2 (s2 -3*s1) + YIntercept. In particular, this is larger than YIntercept if s2 > 3 *s1, and smaller otherwise. Possible values of s2 include values which are larger than 3*s1 and values which are smaller than 3*s1. Hence, the max of the function maybe be at 0 or at s2, dependent on s2. This gives the question a good amount of randomisation.

r digits are picked at random (with replacement) from the set $\{0,\;1,\;2,\ldots,\;n\}$. Probabilities that 1) all $\lt k$, 2) largest is $k$?
